Intercooler - Where to get "Backdoor" type?
turbo Grant replied to Jamie5414's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
I just make my own but there are several company who will make you one to spec. Google come up with a few -
I get stuff just incase What pads you running?

To check the glow plug you will need to remove the inlet manifold. It's really easy to do. It's quite a common problem for the mondeo to start up rough. It can be down to a cylinder low on compression. You can put a clamp meter on the starter wire to check for that. The pumps wear out on them also which results in the injectors becoming blocked up over time.

I've got a spare set of wilwod's I can chuck on. Couple of pad choices as well

You just got to do it. I've not taken a car on track before. Been more of a bike man

One thing to remember the knock sensor isn't a magic fix. If the engine is experiencing knock regularly there is a problem. When I was driving it I could hear any knock. But it's the high load, high speed situations that are the worst and I didn't boot it hard past 3rd gear. I went for the novice sessions 9.50 and 16.04 times

If you put a new wire in make sure it's shield. I've got loads of microphone wire if you want me to send some up. The car will drive fine with it work. The only thing it won't do is retard the timing when the ecu detects knock

Make sure they all look the same and the electrode tips are in good shape. If you find one blacker than the others it's probably your problem. Also check for black lines going up the ceramic on the outside. If you find one with line/s it can cause misfire. If your not sure about them best to put a new set in

The king lead won't help matters that's for sure. I would start by checking / replacing the spark plugs

Will these cv boot clips do?
turbo Grant replied to dangeestarlet's topic in Drivetrain & Transmission
They will work fine. Just pinch them up with some side cutters. -
Yes you can replace you rusted steel lines for copper ones. I do loads at work

Cracking work dude. I'd this one going to wonder off to a track slag lol

Be good to see what a fast hybrid can do -
I'm glad I won the si clocks on eBay

It's basically a direct fit. Just need to wack the chassis leg with a hammer and the throttle cable is a tight fit. You could find one off a differnt car to fit if you don't like the sound of that

Some good progress. Get a GT / paseo / glanza brake servo and master clyinder on. Will improve the brakes 10 fold
